My 1983-84 PST and a MUT!

[Accujohn]

Glad to be here... I'm a long time collector/enthusiast in Leatherman country and own several, including this very early release PST. Tim estimated this at late 1983 or 84. Glad to be here and contribute!

Do you like Devils rejects or house of 1000 corpses better?

[Accujohn]

I think they were both pretty entertaining but i think i remember liking devils rejects slightly more.

Yea I like Devils Rejects more. So is the PST and MUT the extent of your Leathermans or do you have anything else?

Awesome.    Do you own any other brands or are you strictly a Leatherman guy?

[Accujohn]

Pretty much leatherman... But im always interested in new mechanisms, innovations and materials. Regardless of brand. Would like to branch out. You?

I am also mainly a Leatherman guy but have recently bought a few Victorinox Swiss Tools and fell in love with them. They are definitely worth looking into if you want to branch out. The overall fit and finish is remarkable. This is my (used) but new to me Victorinox Swiss Tool that is coming my way from a fellow member.




He also has some great deals on new in box Leatherman Waves that you might be interested in.

I've recently been scoping a swiss tool at a local surplus shop. Not sure whats a good price. They have had it a few years: $80 i think

$80 is a fair price for a new Swiss Tool. There are many models that look very similar so it is hard to say, but to the best of my knowledge they are all around the same price range.


EDIT: I forgot to add if you look around the For Sale section around here you will probably find one for cheaper.

Greetings John! That is indeed a sweet old PST you have there.


Side note: I've always wondered when & why they changed PERSONAL survival tool to POCKET survival tool?

Hello John. Nice PST you got there!

[Accujohn]

The tools have come a long way...  Thanks!
